Draganfly’s Heavy Lift Drone Receives Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC)

 

Ottawa, Ontario, November 28, 2023 – Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO) (CSE: DPRO) (FSE: 3U8A) (“Draganfly” or the “Company”), an award-winning, industry-leading drone solutions and systems developer, is pleased to announce that it has received a Transport Canada Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC) for its Heavy Lift Drone to support advanced flight testing above 55lbs/25KG MTOW. This will allow highly specialized development of advanced delivery, industrial and defense applications.

 

The Heavy Lift Flight Testing SFOC allows Draganfly to conduct these specialized and advanced operations utilizing the Heavy Lift within an approved flight test area, enabling the Company to initiate direct application and use-case testing. This development also allows Draganfly to enhance and optimize highly specialized operational and maintenance manuals and Standard Operating Procedures for a variety of conditions and scenarios.

 

“This certification demonstrates our commitment to meeting regulatory standards and allows us to advance our Heavy Lift platform through advanced and application-specific evaluations, which broaden and deepens the use-cases for this incredible drone,” said Cameron Chell, President and CEO of Draganfly.

 

In July 2023, Draganfly received its first SFOC from Transport Canada for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) and operations above 400 feet for wildfire suppression. This authorization allows the company to cover extensive regions and rapidly deploy drones to help firefighters during wildfire suppression.
